mr_hair Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 Hello Troopers! Thought I would share with you my cheap & easy method of scratch building thermal detonator clips. Things you will need: Aluminium sheet Black paint 2x zip tie Sharpie A4 paper 3mm HSS-R drill bit & dremel Ruler Needle files Massive scissors First up, draw out a template on some paper... These are the measurements for my TD, but they may vary depending on which make you have. It should fit like this... Next, grab your sharpie & draw round the template onto the aluminium... ...and cut out with those massive scissors Then draw on where the holes on the inside are going to go... Drill round where you have just marked... Take your needle files and start taking out the rest of the middle bits Now for a bit of here's one I made earlier... File down any jagged bits so it's all neat, paint the ends black & bend like so. You should have something like this... Next, slide two zip ties round the back of the tube in your TD Pop the metal clips in... And you're done! 4 Quote
